Default New Member,

Hello To All,


I am new to the board. I currently do not own a Corvette but am hoping to buy one this spring or early summer. Most likely it will be a late C5, early C6. I've always wanted a Corvette since I was a kid. I am looking forward to being a member here and hope I will be able to
contribute as time goes on. I have been on many car forums and know how valuable they are for info and technical advice. Thanks in advance for any buying tips and advice you can send my way!

Thank you! I was planning on a later model C5 but was very impressed with
The condition of this one. It had everything I was looking for so I went for it.
